The Glade 4.0

Ok, might as well start the picture thread. Some basic guidelines

1) Let's try for some recent pictures, try not to use the ones you've been using for the last ten years or so.
2) Make comments in another thread, save this one for pictures.
3) All pictures are you or someone (or some pet or inanimate object you love) close to you, all appropriately labeled. No celebrities unless you're in the picture too.
4) If you have a question on one of the pictures, ask it of the poster in a PM. Take it to tells.
5) The usual no porn rules, it doesn't matter how hot you are.

Me, earlier this year.

Me about 2 weeks ago. The smile is not a typical thing for me but I had a damn good reason to smile.

In Atlanta @ The Tabernacle around November 2006. Fun times. Ignore the rosey chipmunk cheeks pls, twas facking hot in there. BTW, I've gained about 10 lbs since that pic was taken. And ignore that creeper in the background.

Don't think I posted in any of the last few threads about this. So I'll give you two.

The first is from last year when I went camping with some friends. I look pissed, but I really wasn't. I just have a thick brow, and it furrows really well when I'm concentrating or having a deep discussion (I was doing the latter). And yep, that hat does say Blizzard on it.



The next was taken just a couple weeks ago in Vegas when my wife and I went to Terry Goodkind's book-signing and "An Evening With Terry Goodkind" event. (I'm actually shocked he remembered me.... I guess he must not meet a lot of respectful critics).




Bonus pic: Arrr! Ye scurvy bilge rats!

Ok, here goes. These are pics from our DisneyWorld trip this summer.

This is a picture of me trying to look all serious.


Here is a pic of me and my girls with Mr. & Mrs. Incredible.


And this last one is a picture of my wife and the girls with Cinderella's Wicked step-mother. I don't know about you, but I think the resemblance btwn her and my wife is uncanny. That actually explains quite a few things.

Profile pic on my website. Taken a few weeks ago with my little camera, then filtered heavily to make it atmospheric and moody. And to hide as much of me as possible.

Edit: Oh, hey, some of my gray hair is visible! Cool.

Amsterdam!

Ooh! An excuse to test the file upload feature!

Since Farsky got to be all coy and mysterious and brooding, I shall reveal a different side of him.

"The Gang" at DragonCon. Captain Tripps is Sir Not Appearing In This Photo, as he was snapping the shot. Don't ask me what Mr. Skee is doing, there. I'm on the right.

Picture of my girlfriend and I driving past some cow fields on a semi-recent trip to Arizona to visit my brother. I feel it really captures my ninja essence.

VACATION PICTURE DUMP! (Note: all commentary is humor.)



Day 1. Due to use of our van's built-in TV system, Raiho finds a spot to sit down. (Father is on top, mother is on bottom.)



Day 1: Raiho is plotting to steal the TV, and has found the perfect position to do so. FIGHT AGAINST THE TYRANNICAL PARENTAL DOMINATION OF THE TELEVISION!



Day 2: We can't manage to stuff Raiho back in his spot before the van starts rolling.



Day 5: Insert joke about Raiho melting if he goes into a church here.

Day 5: Raiho finds a convenient spot for getting lunch - in my shirt. Everyone is either weirded out or deeply entertained.



Day 7: We forget to bring Raiho to the mall for entertainment. Twice. He is not happy, and we still live in terror of what he'll do when his bloody vengeance finally comes.



Day 7: Raiho is allowed to partake of the little brother's tempura. Unfortunately, it caused a firm need for a Jin Dan.

Day 7: Raiho Kuzheehoha The 15th Versus Halo 3 ended in the little brother spending most of the night playing Halo.



Day 8: Plushies don't do so well when they attempt to snorkel. Only through violence and threats with fire were we able to prevent him from jumping into the water.



Day 8: Raiho would like you to take a good long look at the mother f***in' boat. PLEASE LOOK AND RESCUE HIM FROM THE ANGRY FISH! (Paddling behind him is my little brother.)



Day 10: So much fudge in there. 2 pounds of delicious fudge, both chocolate and milk chocolate. It lasted a month, because Raiho was not allowed into it.

Day 10: Grandma will miss Raiho. He has brought many laughs and smiles to the week.



Day 11: Raiho's opinion: GET ME OUT OF THIS GODDAMN VAN OR I'LL MURDER YOU WITH THE KITTEN. Everyone else: "It's so cute when he tries to express demonic rage. So tired.."

A pic of me and my sweetheart at the Flying Saucer here in Addison.

Quick peak at the Blizzcon piccies

This is me going "oopsss... I just got killed by the computers... " on SC2


Sanrio store "omgwtfbbq I want to buy everything~!"


I'll post some more blizzcon pics in the gaming forum.

This is me at Blizzcon, the second day on our way to the convention center. I'm not exactly sure why I look so angry. Just my look, I guess. Also, my hair isn't usually like that. I took a shower in the morning and I didn't have a comb or brush. Tada.

This is the official picture from the Spyder test ride I took while I was at Sturgis. Yes, I wear a do-rag when I ride, under my helmet. It keeps my hair out of my eyes. The jacket has padding in important places in order to prevent pain when I go down. (It's happened before. It's handy.)

I was too lazy to trim out the ad blurb. Sorry.
